About The Merciless King of Moore High

When the adults of Brockton, Connecticut, morphed into bloodthirsty monsters nine months ago, the students at Jefferson High barricaded themselves inside their school. Now eighteen-year-old Kay is trying to keep her classmates from starving. Kay has no poker face and can't keep her mouth shut, so when she learns a secret that threatens the delicate power balance at Jefferson, she's dragged out of the school in a secret assassination attempt. But when a raiding party of cheerleaders from crosstown rival Moore High comes to her rescue, Kay finds herself among ruthless, hard-partying road warriors who have adopted the feudal trappings of a video game. Life at Moore is violent and cliquish, but everyone is thriving—everyone who survives the monster hunts. For Moore's beloved King Max demands two things: absolute fealty and that everyone help kill the "dragons." If Kay wants to survive, she must be granted asylum at Moore—which means slaying dragons, not asking the wrong questions, and navigating the rival factions, love triangles, and political intrigues. But when Kay discovers a deadly secret, her inability to hide the truth might spark the revolution that burns both schools to the ground.
